Hence, a 20-year period of the patent usually gives manufacturers a chance to recoup the cost of developing a new drug. When a drug patent expires, any pharmaceutical company can manufacture and sell the drug. A drug, which is produced and distributed without patent protection is called a generic drug.
When a drug is under patent protection, the company markets it under its brand name. When the drug is off-patent (no longer protected by patent), the company may market its product under either the generic name or brand name.
